Server Log Information

MultiCare collects standard server log information such as IP address, time spent on the site, browser type, etc. We collect and assess this information on an aggregate basis in order to track site statistics, pages that are most popular to our visitors, performance monitoring and troubleshooting.

Financial information that is collected is used only to bill the visitor for services and products utilized.
